7 Ideas To Decorate With Flowers In Your Home Interior

There is really no better way to be greeted when you enter your home than by an exquisite display of flowers. And, for this reason, the hallway is one of the most effective places to show off an arrangement. Something colourful and striking will always make a conversation-starter as soon as guests step inside your home.

This space by Helen Green Design shows how to take advantage of high ceilings. A mix of green and purple hydrangeas, guelder roses and dahlias add up to a tall, full bunch that can be admired on ground level, whilst walking up the elegant staircase, and from above.

Take note of the vase: a sculptural silhouette adds edge to the pretty display while a neutral palette allows the flowers’ hues to do the talking.

A posy of pretty flowers is a sweet way to accent your bedside table. The benefits aren’t only visual; you can also lift energy and set yourself up for a good day ahead by simply adding an arrangement to your space.

Your bedroom is the last place you’ll find yourself at night and the first place you wake up to in the morning, so creating satisfying surroundings is key for a good mood.

Stay clear of extra-large arrangements, as you’ll want to leave room for a bedside lamp, your favourite nighttime reads, and any other trinkets or essentials you want by your side.

Helen Green Design opt for a neat array of pink-coral roses and peonies accompanied by sprigs of eucalyptus in a hammered golden vase. Take inspiration from the way that the arrangement references the wall lamp. Cohesive styling guaranteed to please.

Follow Brendan Wong’s lead by using flowers with colour and texture to transform your living space.

In this Sydney apartment, the Australian designer tops a coffee table with a round vase full of purple alliums. Their large heads bring scale and texture to the room, contrasting the sleek, smooth glass vase and table surrounding them.

Texture is amplified again in the corner of the room, where a vase of textural stems, stacked on a set of nesting side tables, introduces a more rugged aesthetic. The organic vibe is mirrored by a few natural objets and a painting that evokes thoughts of the natural patterns found in stone.

Try changing up your flower colour scheme to give your interior a new look every few weeks. This purple palette echoes the lilac seating, but emerald green or fuchsia pink blooms would work equally well.

Thinking a little outside the box when it comes to where to place your floral displays is a playful way to go. Remember you’re not limited to tables and sideboards. Consider accenting floor space with potted plants or a mantelpiece or bare windowsill that needs a little something.

Natalia Miyar brings a fun touch to this space via a bright bunch of tulips, presented in a golden vase to complement the luxe drinks trolley.

The Miami-raised designer admits to finding her much of inspiration in nature and organic materials. “Nature has always been an important influence on my work and continues to inform the concepts and palettes of my projects. I gravitate to the outdoors as I love […] the bold, lush green of tropical plants.”

The interior designers at British studio Alexander James Interior Design give a lesson in the benefits of using the same arrangement more than once.

Simple yet striking, the repeat technique is quick to execute and easy to switch up (rotate your arrangements around your interior) to keep your space feeling fresh.

Three floral displays scatter pops of fuchsia pink across the upper and lower levels of this sleek shelf unit. Clear glass vases let the vibrancy of the flowers really shine, while smoky grey cylindrical vases are deliberately left empty to allow their colour to take focus.

Experiment with floral shelf styling in your home by using identical flowers to capture the eye. Or try a few varying arrangements (think baby pink + taffy pink + deep magenta) to create a tonal effect.
